Victorian Mourning Jewelry

“The first time I met Alissa Bennett, she was bedecked in Victorian mourning jewelry, the covertly snipped off hair of the deceased now glimmering against her black cardigan. She told me she was writing her thesis on “the erotic aesthetics of tuberculosis in the late 1800s” and I thought “this is love at first sight.” I don’t personally collect this stuff, but if I saw it laid out on your dresser I would think highly of you.”
